I hate peddling my own wares but I'm a stubborn fool who decided to make my career in the arts because I probably wasn't good for much else. Unfortunately, this makes wares-peddling kind of unavoidable. So, if you like abandoned places, I have signed copies of my first book, "Abandoned America: The Age of Consequences" on sale with a free 5x7 print. There are 30-odd chapters of photos of some of my favorite abandoned places in it, so, idk, if that's your thing here you go

Well, folks, I got an absolute TON of book orders - far, far more than I expected - and am feeling very thankful for all of you who ordered them, boosted this, and/or are just generally supportive and kind. There were so many orders I had to order more books from my publisher and get more shipping boxes too. Let none say that the Fediverse community doesn't support the arts. I really appreciate it and hope you all enjoy your books. Thank you so much fedi friends ❤️

Finally got the extra books and packing supplies and spent the day boxing all the book orders for shipment on Monday. I have literally never sold so many books at once - 47! I really appreciate the support, hope you folks all enjoy them, and I am very tired 😴

Seriously kind of stunned that I got the response I did. When I post about selling books 10 sales is usually a pretty high number. The Fediverse is a force to be reckoned with.

@AbandonedAmerica My book just arrived today and it's gorgeous! 😍 Thanks for the print, too! (Is there any way to tell where it's from? I didn't see it on my first go-through of the book.) I'm really looking forward to reading the stories behind these amazing pics. Thanks again!
@WhatTheChel @AbandonedAmerica i really feel you should just leave it on the table for a few years...
@peteo Oh, the book will absolutely be on my table!
